Diagnosis: Leukemia; September 24, 1988

I woke up at seven o’clock to hear Alex coughing. I gave him cough medicine and went back to sleep. I didn’t wake up until twelve o’clock, I must have been really tired. I made waffles for brunch, Alex and I both had some. Then I had a shower and got dressed.

After two o’clock we went out shopping and went to a Won-Ton House for dinner on Kingsway. We came home afterwards and watched TV.

Mom phoned when she got back from the hospital, she said that they had Dad up walking around today. They don’t want him walking too much just yet. Mom gave me Dad’s phone number and said if I had time to give him a call. I phoned him after I had talked to Mom. Dad said they keep asking him if he had smoked, they said that smoking is one of causes to the problem in his vein. I found that quite surprising, I would never have thought that smoking would damage a persons veins.

Alex went to bed at ten o’clock. I went to bed at ten thirty.
